Lifesafety Power FPO250-C8PD8PE4M 250W PoE Power Supply
Overview
The FPO250-C8PD8PE4M is a 250-watt midrange power distribution unit designed for networked security camera deployments. It consolidates power delivery for multiple IP cameras and edge devices in distributed installations where central UPS capacity is impractical or where redundancy at the cabinet level is required. Built for integrators managing branch offices, warehouse zones, or multi-tenant environments where localized power supervision and battery backup enhance uptime without oversizing a central facility supply.
Specifications & Deployment Fit
The unit delivers 250 watts total capacity across eight programmable outputs with selectable voltage and current per port — enabling you to power a mix of camera types (5MP, 4K, panoramic, thermal) on a single board without waste or cross-channel interference. Battery backup capability (when paired with external battery packs) means cameras remain live during brief mains loss, critical during verification windows or incident response. Individual output supervision detects disconnection or fault, alerting your monitoring system to power-delivery failures before they cascade to video loss.
Installation Notes
Mount in a standard 19" rack frame or wall cabinet. Verify input voltage matches your facility standard (typically 110–240 VAC). Configure output assignments and supervision thresholds via onboard DIP switches or network interface. Ensure battery backup modules (if required) are rated for the total connected load and ambient operating temperature range. Test supervision alerts and battery runtime before final commissioning.
When to Choose a Different Model
If your deployment requires higher density (more than eight outputs) or greater total power budget (above 250W), evaluate larger units in the Lifesafety Power industrial supply family. If you need UPS functionality integrated into a single chassis without external batteries, consider dedicated uninterruptible supply models designed for video surveillance applications.
